Place Value and Decimal Fractions
Place Value and Decimal Fractions: In this Module, students’ understanding of the patterns in the base ten system are extended from Grade 4’s work with place value of multi
-digit whole numbers and decimals to hundredths to the thousandths place. In Grade 5,
students deepen their knowledge through a more generalized understanding of the relationships between and among adjacent places on the place value chart, e.g., 1 tenth
times any digit on the place value chart moves it one place value to the right.
Words to Know
 Sample Problems
 Standard Form
 Expanded Form
Hundredths – one of 100 equal parts; hundredth’s place (in decimal notation) the position of the second digit to the right of the
decimal point
 Place Value Chart
 Help at home
Tenths – one of 10 equal parts; tenth’s place (in decimal notation)
the position of the first digit to the right of the decimal point
 Standards for
Mathematical
Practice
Place Value - the value of the place of a digit (0-9) in a number
 Florida Standards
Decimal Fraction - a fractional number with a denominator of 10
or a power of 10 (10, 100, 1,000). It can be written with a decimal
point
Equation – statement that two mathematical expressions have
the same value
Special points
of interest:
 Words to Know
Thousandths – one of 1,000 equal parts; thousandth's place (in
decimal notation) the position of the third digit to the right of the
decimal point
Exponent - tells the number of times the base is multiplied by
itself Example: 104 – the 4 is the exponent and tells us the 10
(base) is multiplied 4 times (10 x 10 x 10 x 10)

The goal of DUVAL
Math is to produce
students who are not
merely literate, but
fluent, in mathematics.
Your child has an
exciting year of
discovering the story of
mathematics ahead!

Each module’s parent tip sheet will
highlight a new strategy or math model
your student will be
working on.
How can you help at home?
Create number cubes or spinners and have the student identify the place value and value of
different digits in that number. • Roll or pick numbers to create decimals. Add, subtract, multiply, or divide the decimals. • Find the batting averages or other statistics in the sports section
of a newspaper and add or subtract the statistics. • Estimate and find the sums and differences of items at the store and in restaurants. • Practice basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts. • Roll or pick numbers to create decimals. Compare and order the numbers. • Choose a four-digit number. Multiply and divide by powers of 10 (10, 100, 1,000, etc.)
by moving the decimal point left or right as appropriate.

Standards for Mathematical
Practice
During the first 10 days of schools,
teachers will emphasize the importance
of the 8 Standards for mathematical
practice through 30 minute lessons.
These practices will be embedded in
lessons daily throughout the school
year.
Strength with the mathematical practices make strong mathematicians!
Mathematics Florida Standards
5.NBT.1.1 Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times
as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place
to its left.
5.NBT.1.2 Explain patterns in the number of zeroes of the product when multiplying a
number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a
decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote
powers of 10.
5.NBT.1.3 Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths.
a. Read and write decimals to thousandths using base-ten numerals, number names,
and expanded form, e.g., 347.392 = 3 × 100 + 4 × 10 + 7 × 1 + 3 × (1/10) + 9 × (1/100) + 2
× (1/1000).
b. Compare two decimals to thousandths based on meanings of the digits in each
place, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
5.NBT.1.4 Use place value understanding to round decimals to any place.
5.NBT.2.7 Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete
models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or
the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method
and explain the reasoning used.
5.MD.1.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given
measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving
multi-step, real world problems.
